I think Denver wants Darues or to trade out.

We pick up another 7th in compensation. Not because we lost anybody, but because no one really lost anybody and they have to give out 32 of these things, so, yeah.

And it looks like we get a 7th from Indy for Tryon. I had thought it might be a 6th

I'm very confused about how this works. I thought it was some formula with the net free agents lost (money wise) matched up with free agents brought in.

Arizona lost Dansby Rolle Berry (and sort of Warner). Dansby and Rolle were two of the biggest FA's available. All they signed was Joey Porter.

Why does arizona have one pick and its the 6th from last in the 7th?

I was thinking we had 7 picks before this w/2 in 5th & 2 in 6th.
So do we now have 8 picks - 1,2, 5th,5th, 6th, 7th, 7th, 7th?

Or is that Tryon pick in addition to the 2 6ths we have?

I believe it's the latter

Why has JJ Watt not gotten more hype? I'm doing some research on pass rushers now, and while looking at the combine numbers realized how much of an animal he is. Lets take a look at how he compares to the other defensive linemen physically.

At 6-5, 290 lbs he still ranked
2nd in the 20 yard shuttle-4.21
3rd in the 3 cone drill-6.88
3rd in the broad jump-10'2
2nd in the vert jump-37 in
4th in the bench press (this includes defensive tackles)-34 reps
The only thing he didn't excel at was he ranked 15 in the 40 yd dash. But I'd say running a 4.84 when you are 290 lbs is pretty good. (he ran a 4.78 on his pro day)

He had 7 sacks which is not elite numbers, but all 7 came in games against the big 10. He also had 62 total tackles and interception. He seems like solid pick at 3-4 end. I know shannahan wants a linebacker, but we also need d-linemen. Improved D-line play could also improve our linebacker play.

I'm not saying we should for sure take him, just at least take a closer look at him. Something to consider

He's gotten some good press. I think it was an NFL scout that said he's the best 5 technique DE he's seen in years. He would be a good pick for us to play RDE, though I hope Jarmon can step into that role.

Me: So what do you think Kyle wants to do? Any free agents or rookies he's got his eye on?

Anonymous Source: He seems to be really intrigued by Andy Dalton

I'm okay with that, but I was really hoping you were going to say Colin Kaepernick. Is there anyway you can use Jedi mind tricks to alter his thoughts and then edit the post to match?

I wouldn't mind Dalton

I think Kyle and Mike should see what they have to do in order to get Orton, he'd be a good fit in kyles offense

In 2006 I mocked the Bears mercilessly for their QB stable. Although Orton and Grossman are not the same players that they were in 2006, I will cry if we go Bears II.
